What our frameless fire-rated glazing service includes in Selby

Frameless fire-rated glazing is a glass wall where panes meet edge to edge with a tested sealant joint instead of vertical frames, held in discreet head and base channels. It gives an almost uninterrupted view while still being tested to resist fire.

  • Handover evidence
  • Head, base and wall channels to the system details
  • Manifestation design
  • Rated sealant joints

What to check before ordering frameless fire-rated glazing in Selby

Cost

Frameless fire glazing is at the top of the price range because of the glass and precision required.

Deflection

Channels at the head have to allow for slab movement without loading the glass.

The joint is part of the test

The sealant, joint width and any interlayer in the joint come from the test. Generic silicone in a fire glass joint is not acceptable.

Selby coverage and nearby towns

Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Selby, including the YO8 districts, and in nearby Goole, Pontefract, York. York, around 19 km from Selby, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
